Detailed Description

In the implementation process of the existing color vibration service, the color vibration service is downloaded or played through a mobile network, namely: the calling user initiates a call request to the called user, the color vibration server performs media negotiation with the called terminal corresponding to the called user, the color vibration server plays customized media information such as audio and video to the called terminal based on a mobile data network, or adds a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of the media information in a header field of the call request, and the called terminal downloads the customized media information such as audio and video to the local for playing after receiving the call request. Here, in the current implementation scheme of the color vibration service, the called terminal needs to download the media information corresponding to the color vibration service to the local of the called terminal and then play the media information, so that a large amount of traffic of the called user is inevitably consumed, and the user experience is reduced. Moreover, for 2G/3G network users, enhanced color vibration services cannot be experienced, such as a real-time video ringing service when the called terminal displays a call of the calling user, or a mixed media ringing (that is, a picture call request pushed by the calling user is displayed in a full screen manner while the called terminal performs audio ringing). Even if the called user is a volte (voice over lte) user, it takes time to adopt the call flow meter, and a high flow rate fee is charged, which inevitably causes a very poor user experience.

Moreover, the media information type of the existing color ring service is single, and the media information type is basically played in random selection among a plurality of ring tones set by a user, and all ring tones are required to adapt to the playing condition of the worst network, that is, the audio and even video content with higher quality cannot be selected for the user to be played according to the network condition of the user in the implementation process of the existing color ring service; and is limited by the quality and stability of the network, and the accessibility and quality of the enhanced chromatic vibration service cannot be guaranteed under specific network conditions.

Furthermore, the technical scheme of the existing color vibration service is based on that a calling terminal directly triggers a color vibration server without passing through a core network of an operator, so a hacker can easily attack the color vibration server through the terminal to cause service paralysis. Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, embodiments of the present invention provide a media information processing method, a network device, and a terminal; in particular, in order that the nature and technical content of the present invention may be more clearly understood, a more particular description of the invention, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the appended drawings, which are included by way of illustration only and are not intended to limit the invention.

Example one

The embodiment provides a media information processing method, and specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:

step 101: the method comprises the steps that network equipment obtains a call request aiming at the color vibration service, wherein the call request represents a first terminal request to communicate with a second terminal; before the second terminal communicates with the first terminal based on the call request, the second terminal can acquire target media information corresponding to the color vibration service from the network equipment and play the target media information;

in this embodiment, the network device may specifically be a color vibration service platform, such as a color vibration server; the first terminal may specifically be a calling terminal corresponding to a calling subscriber; the second terminal may specifically be a called terminal corresponding to a called user, and at this time, the call request is specifically a voice communication request initiated by the calling terminal to the called terminal.

Step 102: the network equipment acquires network characteristic information of a target communication network where the second terminal resides;

in this embodiment, in order to enable the media information sent by the network device to the second terminal to match with the network characteristics of the communication network where the second terminal resides, such as network quality, the network device needs to obtain the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides, so that a foundation is laid for pertinently selecting the media information matching with the network communication quality.

Step 103: and the network equipment selects target media information with media characteristics matched with the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides from at least one piece of media information associated with the second terminal based on the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides, and sends the target media information to the second terminal.

Here, the media information may specifically be media information customized by the second terminal, and the media information is at least one of the following information: audio information, video information, pictures.

In a specific embodiment, the process that the network device sends the target media information to the second terminal is triggered by the second terminal, and specifically, the second terminal obtains a call request for a vibro-chromatic service, determines a communication network where the second terminal resides, and selects a target communication network from the communication network where the second terminal resides, so as to obtain the target media information corresponding to the vibro-chromatic service by using the target communication network, and further, the second terminal generates a play request for the vibro-chromatic service, and carries network type information of the target communication network where the vibro-chromatic service is implemented in the play request, and sends the play request. Correspondingly, the network equipment receives a playing request aiming at the color vibration service sent by the second terminal; the playing request carries network type information of a target communication network where the second terminal resides and the color vibration service is realized; and the network device further analyzes the play request, obtains network type information (such as a mobile communication network or a data network) of the target communication network, and selects target media information with media characteristics matched with the network type information and the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides from at least one piece of media information associated with the second terminal based on the network type information and the network characteristic information (such as communication quality, bandwidth and the like) of the target communication network.

Here, the process of the second terminal selecting the target communication network from the communication networks where the second terminal resides may specifically include: the second terminal detects whether the second terminal is resident in other communication networks except the mobile communication network; when determining to reside in other communication networks except the mobile communication network, taking other communication networks, such as data networks of Wi-Fi network and the like, as the target communication network; and when determining that the mobile communication network does not reside in other communication networks except the mobile communication network, taking the mobile communication network in which the mobile communication network resides as the target communication network.

In another specific embodiment, the process of sending, by the network device, the target media information to the second terminal is triggered by itself, that is, the network device sends a communication network probe request to the second terminal to probe whether the second terminal resides in another communication network except a mobile communication network; specifically, when the second terminal is determined to reside in other communication networks except the mobile communication network, the other communication networks are taken as the target communication network, and if the second terminal resides in the Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi network is taken as the target communication network; or when the second terminal is determined not to reside in other communication networks except the mobile communication network, the mobile communication network where the second terminal resides is taken as the target communication network, the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides is further acquired, the target media information of which the media characteristics are matched with the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides is selected based on the network characteristic information, and the target media information is sent to the second terminal.

Thus, the second terminal can receive the target media information with the media characteristics matched with the network type information and the network characteristic information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides, and play the target media information.

In practical application, when the network device determines that the second terminal resides in a target communication network other than the mobile communication network, the network device may further obtain location information of the target communication network; and further based on the network characteristic information and the position information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides, selecting target media information with media characteristics matched with the network characteristic information and the position information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides from at least one piece of media information associated with the second terminal.

That is to say, the target media information determined by the method of the embodiment of the present invention is not only related to the network characteristics where the called terminal resides, but also related to the network type corresponding to the called terminal, or may also be related to the address of the data network where the called terminal resides.

In this way, the method according to the embodiment of the present invention obtains a call request for a color vibration service through a network device, obtains network feature information of a target communication network where a second terminal corresponding to the call request, such as a called terminal, resides, further selects target media information from at least one media information associated with the second terminal based on the network feature information of the target communication network, and sends the target media information to the second terminal, where the selected target media information is media information whose media feature matches the network feature information of the target communication network where the second terminal resides, so that the purpose of specifically selecting media information whose media feature matches network communication quality is achieved, and user experience is improved.

Moreover, the target communication network according to the embodiment of the present invention may be specifically a mobile communication network, and may also be a data network, so that when the target communication network is specifically a data network, that is, when the network device according to the embodiment of the present invention transmits the target media information to the second terminal through the data network, the problem of consuming network traffic of the user due to downloading or playing of a lottery through the existing mobile communication network can be avoided, and user experience is improved. Further, when the network device transmits the target media information to the second terminal through the data network, even if the second terminal is a 2G/3G network user, the enhanced chromatic vibration service can be experienced by using the data network, such as a Wi-Fi network, so that the embodiment of the invention enriches the media types of the chromatic vibration service, enriches the service range of the chromatic vibration service, and further improves the user experience.

In addition, the process of acquiring the call request by the network device in this embodiment may be directly sent by the first terminal, or may be sent by the core network to the network device, so that when the method in the embodiment of the present invention uses the core network to send the call request to the network device, the risk of hacking can be reduced, the security of the network device is improved, and meanwhile, the reliability of the color vibration service is also improved.

Example two

The embodiment provides a specific implementation process of the method in the first embodiment; specifically, here, taking an example that the called terminal can be connected to a mobile communication network and a data network (such as a Wi-Fi network, etc.), the embodiment of the present invention is further described in detail.

In the embodiment, the called terminal corresponding to the called user initiates a Wi-Fi ringing registration process to the color vibration service platform when connecting with the Wi-Fi network. Therefore, when a calling terminal corresponding to a calling user initiates a calling request to a called terminal, the color vibration service platform can know whether the called terminal needs to play color vibration through Wi-Fi according to the Wi-Fi ringing registration condition of the called terminal; after finishing judging the ring playing network, the color vibration service platform detects the network speed condition of the current network of the called terminal, and selects the ring with best quality and most abundant experience to play the ring to the called terminal according to the network speed condition of the called terminal and the ring playing requirement set by the called user in advance. Specifically, the playing process of the color vibration service of this embodiment includes the following steps:

the method comprises the following steps: and when the called user is connected with the Wi-Fi network, initiating a Wi-Fi ringing registration process to the color vibration service platform.

Here, in practical applications, the Wi-Fi ring registration procedure is used to inform the color vibration service platform that the mobile terminal may attempt to play the color vibration using the Wi-Fi network when the mobile terminal is used as a called terminal. Therefore, the color vibration service platform can acquire the Wi-Fi registration condition of the called terminal and can perform subsequent color vibration media negotiation with the called terminal without modifying a core network signaling system of an operator.

Step two: when the calling terminal initiates a call request to the called terminal, the color vibration service platform confirms the network residence condition of the called terminal.

Here, there may be two specific implementation manners, of course, the following two implementation manners are only used for explaining the embodiment of the present invention, and are not used for limiting the embodiment of the present invention, and in practical applications, there may be other specific implementation manners, and the embodiment is not limited to this. In particular, the amount of the solvent to be used,

the first method is as follows: after the called terminal finishes the registration of the Wi-Fi ringing to the color vibration service platform, the called terminal can send heartbeat information to the color vibration service platform regularly as long as the called terminal keeps the Wi-Fi connection state. When the calling terminal initiates a call request, the color vibration service platform can judge whether the called terminal is currently connected with the Wi-Fi network according to the heartbeat information of Wi-Fi ringing of the current called terminal. If the called network never initiates Wi-Fi ringing registration before, the color vibration service platform directly judges that the called terminal is not connected with the Wi-Fi network.

The second method comprises the following steps: the calling terminal initiates a call request, and after receiving the call request from the core network, the color vibration service platform triggers a self-set timer to start timing. And after receiving the call request, the called terminal sends a ringing play request to the color vibration service platform according to the network connection condition of the called terminal (here, if the called terminal is still in a Wi-Fi connection state, the called terminal initiates a Wi-Fi ringing play request to the color vibration service platform, and if the called terminal is in a non-Wi-Fi connection state, the called terminal initiates a ringing play request under a corresponding network to the color vibration service platform). After receiving the ringing playing request from the called terminal, the color vibration service platform stops the timer and sends a response to the called terminal.

Further, considering that there is a certain unreliability when the called terminal actively requests the color vibration service platform, and therefore, the color vibration service platform does not receive the ringing play request from the called terminal within the time set by the timer, the color vibration service platform actively initiates a Wi-Fi resident detection request to the called terminal to inquire whether the called terminal is in a Wi-Fi activated state currently, that is, whether the called terminal is connected to the Wi-Fi network. The called terminal receives the stay detection request and then carries out network state response to the color vibration service platform, and the timer stops after the color vibration service platform receives the response, so that the color vibration service platform knows the network connected with the called terminal, and further lays a foundation for pertinently selecting color vibration.

Step three: and the color vibration service platform detects the current network condition of the called terminal. If the color vibration service platform judges that the called terminal is in the Wi-Fi connection state currently, detecting the current Wi-Fi network rate condition of the called terminal; and if the color vibration service platform judges that the called terminal is in a non-Wi-Fi connection state currently, detecting the speed condition of a current calling network (namely the current resident mobile communication network) corresponding to the called terminal.

Step four: the color vibration service platform selects the best quality and the richest ringing content which can be provided for the called terminal currently according to the network condition and the network speed condition of the current network of the called user and the ringing playing requirement set by the called user in advance, and transmits the ringing content to the called terminal by using the determined network, thereby completing the playing process of the color vibration service.

Here, the quality of the ringing content of the color vibration service can be at least divided into high-definition video ringing, standard-definition video ringing, smooth video ringing, high-definition audio ringing and standard-definition audio ringing from high to low; the types of ringing media can be at least divided into: real-time video when a calling party calls, mixed media ringing (audio and pictures), video resources of a color vibration service platform and audio resources of the color vibration service platform. In practical application, each ring tone content can carry a content quality attribute, and the color vibration service platform can select according to the ringing quality attribute when ringing needs to be played. Of course, the calling/called user can also set the playing authority for the video ring and the mixed media ring in advance, such as whether the playing is performed only when the called terminal is in the Wi-Fi network, or even when the called terminal is in the non-Wi-Fi network, the color vibration service platform is allowed to perform the video ring and the mixed media ring for the called terminal.

A specific application scenario is given below to illustrate a specific implementation flow of the method according to the embodiment of the present invention in practical application; specifically, in an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network, an initial call request carries early media session information; and after the call request reaches the core network, the core network directly triggers the color vibration service platform to perform color vibration service media negotiation with the called terminal, as shown in fig. 2, the specific flow includes:

step 1: the called user uses a terminal with a function of playing the color vibration under the Wi-Fi network or a terminal provided with an application program APP with the function of playing the color vibration under the Wi-Fi network (the APP can be various APPs comprising a software development kit SDK with the function of playing the color vibration under the Wi-Fi network), and the called user terminal is called as follows. The called terminal (or the APP is utilized) registers the Wi-Fi color vibration service on the color vibration service platform, and the color vibration service platform is informed that the mobile terminal can try to play the color vibration by using a Wi-Fi network when the mobile terminal is used as the called terminal.

Step 2: the calling terminal initiates a call request, the core network triggers the color vibration service platform according to the signing condition of the color vibration service of the called party, and the color vibration service platform completes the initial call negotiation between the calling party and the called party. After receiving a call request from a core network, the color vibration service platform triggers a timer to start timing. And after receiving the color vibration service trigger of the core network, the color vibration service platform performs interaction with the core network according to the existing color vibration process.

And step 3: and after receiving the call request from the color vibration service platform, the called terminal sends a ringing play request to the color vibration service platform according to the network connection condition of the called terminal. After receiving the ringing playing request from the called terminal, the color vibration service platform stops the timer and sends a response to the called terminal.

Considering that the terminal request has a certain unreliability, if the color vibration service platform does not receive the ringing play request from the called terminal within the time set by the timer, the color vibration service platform actively initiates a Wi-Fi resident detection request to the called terminal to inquire about the current network connection condition of the called user. And the called user responds to the color vibration service platform after receiving the request, and the timer stops after the color vibration service platform receives the response. In practical application, there is no strict sequential logic definition between the Wi-Fi probe park request and other messages of the call request negotiation message except the initial call request.

And 4, step 4: and the color vibration service platform initiates a network speed detection request to the called terminal after receiving a ring play request or a Wi-Fi detection response from the called terminal. If the color vibration service platform judges that the called user is in the Wi-Fi connection state currently, detecting the current Wi-Fi network rate condition of the called user; if the color vibration service platform judges that the called party is in a non-Wi-Fi connection state at present, the current calling network speed condition of the called party is detected, and the called terminal feeds back a network speed detection response and informs the network condition.

And 5: and the color vibration service platform and the called terminal carry out media negotiation based on the current network connection.

Step 6: the color vibration service platform selects the best quality and the richest ringing content which can be provided for the called terminal currently to play the ringing to the called terminal according to the current network condition and the network speed condition of the called terminal and the ringing playing requirement which is set by the user in advance.

And 7: after the called party picks up the phone, the signaling of picking up the phone is sent to the color vibration service platform, and the color vibration service platform stops playing the ringing. And the color vibration service platform forwards the called off-hook message to the calling party, and the calling party and the called party start the communication.

Based on the color vibration service platform described above, this embodiment provides a composition structure of the color vibration service platform, and specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the color vibration service platform includes: the system comprises a Wi-Fi detection module, an internet speed detection module, a ringing play setting module, a ringing play logic control module and a ringing play module; wherein, each module function is as follows:

the Wi-Fi detection module is responsible for detecting the current Wi-Fi connection condition of the called terminal. When the called terminal color vibration service platform initiates Wi-Fi ringing registration, the module needs to record the current Wi-Fi registration related information of the called terminal, wherein the Wi-Fi registration related information may include, but is not limited to, a called user number, a called wireless network IP address, a gateway address (if any), a port number, a current Wi-Fi network rate (network rate), and the like. Furthermore, after the calling user initiates a call request to the called terminal, the module needs to detect the current Wi-Fi network connection state of the called terminal; here, the non-Wi-Fi connected state is for a called terminal for which Wi-Fi ringing is not registered. For the called terminal registered by Wi-Fi ringing, the module needs to judge whether the Wi-Fi connection of the called terminal is in an activated state according to the Wi-Fi state attribute of the current called terminal or by initiating a Wi-Fi connection detection request to the called terminal. The mode for the module to detect whether the Wi-Fi connection of the called terminal belongs to the active state may include, but is not limited to, the following two modes:

the first method is as follows: after the called terminal finishes the registration of the Wi-Fi ringing to the color vibration service platform, the called terminal can send heartbeat information to the color vibration service platform regularly as long as the called terminal keeps the Wi-Fi connection state. The heartbeat information may include, but is not limited to, the following information: called subscriber number, current Wi-Fi network rate, etc. When the calling terminal initiates a call request, the color vibration service platform can judge whether the called terminal is currently connected with the Wi-Fi network according to the heartbeat information of Wi-Fi ringing of the current called terminal. If the called network never initiates Wi-Fi ringing registration before, the color vibration service platform directly judges that the called terminal is not connected with the Wi-Fi network.

The second method comprises the following steps: the calling terminal initiates a call request, and after receiving the call request from the core network, the color vibration service platform triggers a self-set timer to start timing. And after receiving the call request, the called terminal sends a ringing play request to the color vibration service platform according to the network connection condition of the called terminal (here, if the called terminal is still in a Wi-Fi connection state, the called terminal initiates a Wi-Fi ringing play request to the color vibration service platform, and if the called terminal is in a non-Wi-Fi connection state, the called terminal initiates a ringing play request under a corresponding network to the color vibration service platform). After receiving the ringing playing request from the called terminal, the color vibration service platform stops the timer and sends a response to the called terminal. If the color vibration service platform does not receive the ringing playing request from the called terminal within the time set by the timer, the color vibration service platform initiatively initiates a Wi-Fi residence detection request to the called terminal to inquire whether the called terminal is in a Wi-Fi activated state currently. And the called terminal responds to the color vibration service platform after receiving the request, and the timer stops after the color vibration service platform receives the response. The Wi-Fi connection status information returned by the called terminal may include, but is not limited to, the following information: called subscriber number, current Wi-Fi network rate, etc.

And the network speed detection module is responsible for completing the network speed detection of the current playing ringing network of the called terminal. Here, the detection mode may be obtained from heartbeat information periodically sent by the called terminal, or directly send a network speed detection request to the called terminal, and obtain from self detection data returned by the called terminal.

And the ringing play setting module is responsible for receiving the play setting of the user on the ringing.

Here, on one hand, the user may specify the played ringing content, which may be one ringing or multiple ringing; it may also be different quality audio or video ringing; or may also be a ringing of a different media type. When the user designates the ring set to be played and when the color ringing service platform plays rings to the called user, the highest quality and richest rings that can be accepted by the current called terminal need to be selected from the ring tones designated by the user.

On the other hand, the user may set whether the color vibration service platform preferentially pushes the enhanced color vibration for the called terminal when the user is in the non-Wi-Fi network, such as: real-time calling video of the calling party. Namely, if the user sets that the non-Wi-Fi network also preferentially plays the enhanced color vibration, the color vibration service platform plays the enhanced color vibration for the called terminal as far as possible according to the current network speed condition of the user no matter whether the called terminal is in a Wi-Fi connection state currently, and only when the network speed does not meet the lowest video ring playing speed, the user selects to play the highest-quality audio ring which can be accepted by the called terminal. If the user sets that the enhanced color vibration is played only under the Wi-Fi network, when the color vibration service platform judges that the called terminal is under the Wi-Fi network, the enhanced color vibration is preferentially played for the called terminal according to the network speed condition of the called terminal; and when the called terminal is judged not to be in the Wi-Fi network, the platform pushes the audio ring with the best quality for the user according to the current network speed of the called terminal.

And the ringing play logic control module is responsible for selecting the ringing played for the called user under different conditions according to a certain ringing play rule. Specifically, the ring can be played according to the current network condition of the called terminal, for example, when the user connects to the Wi-Fi network, if the network speed is allowed, the enhanced color ring is preferentially selected for the user, and if the network speed is not allowed, the highest-quality audio color ring is played according to the network speed condition of the user. Further, the judgment process of the ringing push logic under the states that the called terminal is connected with Wi-Fi and not connected with Wi-Fi can be carried out according to the setting that whether the user only uses Wi-Fi network push for the video color ring. Namely: if the user sets that the non-Wi-Fi network also preferentially plays the enhanced color ring, the color ring service platform plays the enhanced color ring with the highest quality for the called terminal as far as possible according to the current network speed condition of the called terminal no matter whether the called terminal is in a Wi-Fi connection state or not, and only when the network speed does not meet the lowest playing speed of the enhanced color ring, the user selects to play the audio color ring with the highest quality accepted by the called terminal. If the user sets that the enhanced color vibration is played only under the Wi-Fi network, when the color vibration service platform judges that the called terminal is under the Wi-Fi network, the high-quality enhanced color vibration is preferentially played for the called terminal according to the network speed condition of the called terminal; and when the called terminal is judged not to be in the Wi-Fi network, the color vibration service platform pushes the audio ring with the best quality for the user according to the current network speed of the called user.

And a ringing playing module, configured to select a corresponding ringing or streaming media uploaded by the calling party in real time from the ring library according to the ringing content played by the ringing playing control module, and play the ringing to the called party through a Wi-Fi network or a called terminal calling network (including global system for mobile communications GSM, third generation mobile communication network WCDMA/CDMA200/TD-SCDMA, fourth generation mobile communication network 4G, etc.) established by the ringing playing control module.

The method of the embodiment of the invention can enable the called user to experience enhanced color vibration, such as: real-time video when the calling user calls, mixed media ringing (audio and pictures), etc. For example, the color vibration service platform can select to play the high-quality enhanced color vibration for the user according to the current wifi network condition of the user, so that the user can enjoy high-quality and rich ringing content and can save traffic cost. Furthermore, the color vibration service platform according to the embodiment of the present invention can select the best quality and the richest ringing content for the user by combining the current network connection condition, the network speed condition and the user ringing play setting of the user, and can enable the user to enjoy the best service to the greatest extent. Moreover, the called terminal of the embodiment of the invention can automatically initiate the WiFi registration process to the color vibration service platform when being connected with the WiFi network, so that the called terminal has the ringing playing request capability of requesting different network connections and qualities to the color vibration service platform, and lays a foundation for realizing the purpose that the called user can save flow cost while enjoying high-quality and rich ringing content.

Therefore, the method of the embodiment of the invention solves the problems that the color vibration service has single media type and the service experience is limited by the network quality, saves the high flow consumption generated by the enhanced color vibration service for the called terminal and improves the user experience. Moreover, the embodiment of the invention can select the multimedia content with higher quality and provide richer multimedia type ringing experience for the user according to different network environments and network speed conditions where the user is located, and simultaneously can ensure that 100% of the color vibration service can be reached, namely whether the called user supports Wi-Fi to play color vibration or not, the color vibration service platform can ensure that at least audio or video ringing meeting the network conditions where the called user is located is played for the called user. In addition, the color vibration service platform triggering is completed by the core network, so that the hidden danger of false attack is avoided.
